The Queens Kickshaw – One of our favorite coffee shops in town, it’s the perfect place to enjoy a delicious brew and then to chill out, do some reading (or blogging in our case) and grab a fantastic grilled cheese sandwich. Sounds like a perfect Sunday to me! 40-17 Broadway, Astoria. 718.777.0913

Avenue Cafe – On a nice day like tomorrow, why not stop in for an ice cold frappe at Avenue Cafe? Not only is the coffee super strong and flavorful, it comes with a light foam on top and is served in a pretty bamboo glass. 35-27 30th Avenue. 718.278.6967

Sweetleaf Coffee

Sweetleaf – Another one of my coffee faves, Sweetleaf carries delicious Stumptown Coffee, which they use to make some unique drinks such as their Iced Rocket Fuel – a cold brewed coffee with chicory and maple syrup. I’ve recently seen their snazzy location on Center Blvd, and it’s worth a visit. 46-15 Center Blvd, LIC. 347.527.1038
